The LCDS

On 8th June 2009 , Guyana’s Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) was launched. The Strategy outlines Guyana’s vision to promote economic development, while at the same time addressing climate change. In March 2013, an Update to the LCDS was prepared and launched. It includes the progress of the LCDS and identifies new projects areas.

This document is the third draft of Guyana’s Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS). It reflects the outcome of almost a year of review and consultation within Guyana, coupled with input from climate change negotiations at the United Nations, and other international climate change initiatives.
